Dr. Franson's office is run very efficiently. I have never needed to wait more than 10-15 minutes past my appointment time to see Dr. Franson. The staff is friendly and Dr. Franson is easy to talk to and explains everything in clear details.

I was very impressed with Dr. Sircar. He seemed more interested in helping me with my problem then the other podiatrist i have been going to for over a year here in Santa Maria. He has given me some hope that there might be something that can be done for me.

I have been coming here for about 2 years now and I always feel very welcome whenever I go to the office. Everyone is always so helpful and always make sure I'm taken care of. In addition, Dr. Franson is great! He always explains everything to me and lets me know of the different options I have.

The care that I’ve received from Dr. Franson and his staffs, that includes the therapy department ... is one of the best I’ve gotten. They’ve helped me go back to walking normally again after my left bunionectomy. One caring and dedicated team ... and Doctor Franson .... he’s just amazingly great and wonderful.
